About Me

Horrida was formed in Cieszyn (Poland) in September 2001. The initiative was Dominique's, so along with Damian and Grzegorz they set their sight on composing awesome, soft, at the same time blazing and unpredictable music. The rest of the band members have changed several times. In October 2003 Karol Niezgoda joined up with the band, and precisely one year later Lukasz, the guitarist, did alike. In its time, Horrida was considered as one of the band responsible for creating the gothic metal genre and released demo and a full-length that fell under this genre. The first demo "Ptak" (2002) and "Libra" (2003), which is more familiar for a wide range of listeners, were just that. In fact, there was a point there, yet the distinctive band style was formed by playing along with and a numerous musical know-how. The way of playing seriously diverged from the original artistic work. The band's primary features are Dominique's deep and stunning lyrics, as well as, superb and unique rhythm section. They are complemented by resounding guitars and the tone of synthesizer that contrasts with a soft, acoustic parts - "Budz sie" (2007) - this demo conveys the true vibes.
From the early beginning the group has intensively paid attention to gig activities, such as the participation in three editions of Poznan Dark Festival, the event for gothic.pl web portal, a concert tour - Abracadabra Gothic Tour 2006, as well as, touring performances with the greatest, national, musical stage stars. The band's works have been radio broadcasted many times in not only Poland but also abroad.
As a matter of fact, Horrida is in a way metal family - we are more or less closely related to each other, except for Dominique, nevertheless we will see. That is why we often spend time together. We know each other very well, we know each other's sense of humour. As it is in a family, apart from being funny during amusing rehearsals and concert trips, there are also many various humorous and less waggish jokes.
Horrida is looking for people who are willing to support band's activities by means of the gigs organizing and taking action in order to promote band's work in the media and local broadcasting stations. If you are able to help, please contact us by writing an e-mail: [email protected]
